COVID-19 has dramatically changed people's daily life. Wearing masks is considered as a simple but effective way to defend the spread of the epidemic. Hence, a real-time and accurate mask wearing detection system is important. In this paper, a deep learning-based mask wearing detection system is developed to help people defend against the terrible epidemic. The system consists of three important functions, which are image detection, video detection and real-time detection. To keep a high detection rate, a deep learning-based method is adopted to detect masks. Unfortunately, according to the suddenness of the epidemic, the mask wearing dataset is scarce, so a mask wearing dataset is collected in this paper. Besides, to reduce the computational cost and runtime, a simple online and real-time tracking method is adopted to achieve video detection and monitoring. Furthermore, a function is implemented to call the camera to real-time achieve mask wearing detection. The sufficient results have shown that the developed system can perform well in the mask wearing detection task. The precision, recall, mAP and F1 can achieve 86.6%, 96.7%, 96.2% and 91.4%, respectively.

This paper addresses the problem of vision-based mask filter inspection for mask production systems. Machine learning-based approaches can be considered to solve the problem, but they may not be applicable to mask filter inspection if normal and anomaly mask filter data are not sufficient. In such cases, handcrafted image processing methods have to be considered to solve the problem. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical correlation-based approach that combines handcrafted image processing methods to detect anomaly mask filters. The proposed approach combines image rotation, cropping and resizing, edge detection of mask filter parts, average blurring, and correlation-based decision. The proposed approach was tested and analyzed with real mask filters. The results showed that the proposed approach was able to successfully detect anomalies in mask filters.

Due to COVID-19, Correct method of wearing mask is important to prevent COVID-19 and the other respiratory tract infections. And the deep learning technology in the image processing has been developed. The purpose of this study is to create the type of mask wearing dataset for deep learning models and select the deep learning model to detect the wearing mask correctly. The Image dataset is the 2,296 images acquired using a web crawler. Deep learning classification models provided by tensorflow are used to validate the dataset. And Object detection deep learning model YOLOs are used to select the detection deep learning model to detect the wearing mask correctly. In this process, this paper proposes to validate the type of mask wearing datasets and YOLOv5 is the effective model to detect the type of mask wearing. The experimental results show that reliable dataset is acquired and the YOLOv5 model effectively recognize type of mask wearing.

Blob detection is an essential ingredient process in some computer applications such as intelligent visual surveillance. However, previous blob detection algorithms are still computationally heavy so that supporting real-time multi-channel intelligent visual surveillance in a workstation or even one-channel real-time visual surveillance in a embedded system using them turns out prohibitively difficult. In this paper, we propose a fast and precise blob detection algorithm for visual surveillance. Blob detection in visual surveillance goes through several processing steps: foreground mask extraction, foreground mask correction, and connected component labeling. Foreground mask correction necessary for a precise detection is usually accomplished using morphological operations like opening and closing. Morphological operations are computationally expensive and moreover, they are difficult to run in parallel with connected component labeling routine since they need much different processing from what connected component labeling does. In this paper, we first develop a fast and precise foreground mask correction method utilizing on neighbor pixel checking which is also employed in connected component labeling so that the developed foreground mask correction method can be incorporated into connected component labeling routine. Through experiments, it is verified that our proposed blob detection algorithm based on the foreground mask correction method developed in this paper shows better processing speed and more precise blob detection.

In this paper, we present an entry-level COVID-19 stand-alone digitial signage player (CoSiP) which performs not only conventional digital signage functionalities but also fever detection, face mask wearing detection, and KI-pass QR code checking. The overall design of CoSiP is proposed, and implementation of a temperature checking algorithm using a low cost thermal sensor is elaborately presented. Through experiments over datasets and against a developed CoSiP device, it is shown that the fever detection, face mask wearing detection, KI-pass QR code checking as well as signage functionalities of the proposed CoSiP work properly and reliably.

본 논문에서는 CCTV를 활용하여 K-means, Sobel-mask 기반의 윤곽선 검출 기법을 이용한 영상 속 미세먼지 측정 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 CCTV 카메라를 이용하여 이미지를 수집하고 관심영역을 통해 이미지 범위를 지정한다. K-means 알고리즘을 적용하여 군집화가 완료되면 Sobel-mask를 통해 윤곽선을 검출하고 윤곽선 강도를 측정하며, 측정된 데이터를 바탕으로 미세먼지의 농도를 파악한다. 제안하는 방법은 대각선 측정에 장점을 가지는 Sobel-mask의 특성을 활용하여 산맥의 윤곽선을 추출하고 실험 결과로 미세먼지 농도에 따른 검출의 차이를 보여준다.

에지는 물체의 여러가지 중요한 정보를 포함하고 있다. 이러한 에지는 많은 분야에서 응용되고 있으며, 기존의 에지 검출 방법에는 마스크를 이용하는 방법 등이 있다. 이러한 기존의 에지 검출 방법들은 구현이 간단하다. 그러나, 고정된 마스크를 이용하므로 복합 잡음 환경에서의 에지 검출 특성은 다소 미흡하다. 따라서 기존의 에지 검출 방법들의 단점을 보완하기 위하여, 본 논문에서는 국부 마스크의 표준편차 및 잡음 제거를 이용한 에지 검출 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

디지털 영상 처리 기술이 발전함에 따라 에지는 여러 응용 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 기존의 에지검출 방법에는 마스크를 이용한 Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, Laplacian 연산자 등이 있다. 이러한 기존의 방법은 구현이 간단하나, AWGN(additive white Gaussian noise)이 첨가된 영상에서 에지 검출의 오류가 발생한다. 따라서 이와 같은 기존의 방법의 단점을 보완하기 위하여, 본 논문에서는 변형된 마스크를 이용한 에지 검출 알고리즘을 제안하였으며, 제안한 알고리즘은 AWGN 환경에서 우수한 에지검출 특성을 나타내었다.

Automatic detection of disease helps medical institutions that are introducing digital images to read images rapidly and accurately, and is thus applicable to lesion diagnosis and treatment. The aim of this study was to apply a symmetry contribution algorithm to unsharp mask filter-applied MR images and propose an analysis technique to automatically recognize brain tumor and edema. We extracted the skull region and drawed outline of the skull in database of images obtained at P University Hospital and detected an axis of symmetry with cerebral characteristics. A symmetry contribution algorithm was then applied to the images around the axis of symmetry to observe intensity changes in pixels and detect disease areas. When we did not use the unsharp mask filter, a brain tumor was detected in 60 of a total of 95 MR images. The disease detection rate for the brain was 63.16%. However, when we used the unsharp mask filter, the tumor was detected in 87 of a total of 95 MR images, with a disease detection rate of 91.58%. When the unsharp mask filter was used in the pre-process stage, the disease detection rate for the brain was higher than when it was not used. We confirmed that unsharp mask filter can be used to rapidly and accurately to read many MR images stored in a database.

최근 비전분야에 소개된 Mask R-CNN은 객체 인스턴스 세분화를위한 개념적으로 간단하고 유연하며 일반적인 프레임 워크를 제시한다. 이 논문에서는 열적외선 카메라로부터 획득한 열감지영상에서 발열체인 인스턴스에 대해 발열부위의 세그멘테이션 마스크를 생성하는 동시에 이미지 내의 오브젝트 발열부분을 효율적으로 탐색하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. Mask R-CNN 기법은 바운딩 박스 인식을 위해 기존 브랜치와 병렬로 객체 마스크를 예측하기 위한 브랜치를 추가함으로써 Faster R-CNN을 확장한 알고리즘이다. Mask R-CNN은 훈련이 간단하고 빠르게 실행하는 고속 R-CNN에 추가된다. 더욱이, Mask R-CNN은 다른 작업으로 일반화하기 용이하다. 본 연구에서는 이 R-CNN기반 적외선 영상 검출알고리즘을 제안하여 RGB영상에서 구별할 수 없는 발열체를 탐지하였다. 실험결과 Mask R-CNN에서 변별하지 못하는 발열객체를 성공적으로 검출하였다.
